BTW, gratuitous baby cuteness pic here.

Pop culture has taught me that Baltimore is full of row houses, cynical cops, clever criminals, and John Waters.

Also full of hairdos and charm.

Lisah, how's that glam mix working for you?

iTunes has Songs the Lord Taught Us, A Date with Elvis, Big Beat from Badsville, How to Make a Monster, Fiends of Dope Island, Look Ma No Head!, Smell of Female, Stay Sick!, and RockinReelininAucklandNewZealand. (I swear, that is how iTunes lists the title.)

In order...

Songs the Lord Taught Us - their first and best. Only full record to feature Bryan Gregory in all his bent gothy glory.
Big Beat From Badsville - has "Sheena's In A Goth Gang", "Queen of Pain," "Hypno Sex Ray"
A Date With Elvis (rawther lewd record, but good)

This is what Rock and Roll should look like.

I like Flamejob too, but it's not an option.

Should I worry that iTunes says that Songs the Lord Taught Us is an incomplete album?

Oh man. That is one cute kid, H.

Emusic has provided me with much Smithsonian Folkways Southern Gospel Favorites and American Banjo standards along with a truly wonderful Vassar Clements album (Living with the Blues, 2004) and with it and what I had already I have made a 10 hour bluegrass/country/gospel/classics/fiddle-y blues/southern rock mix for, at most, a six hour trip. I'm nothing if not prepared.

Reports on Winfield and hopefully meeting up with katefate when I return.

Jackson Five - "I Want You Back" love it. might be the only song so far on my iPod and E's iPod.

SO CUTE, Run baby RUN!

What songs are missing?

I love it!!! Thank you! I can't get that Roxy Roller song out of my head.

It's pretty fab. That band, Sweeney Todd was Canadian and had Nick Gilder ("Hot Child In The City") as the lead singer. After Nick left, a teenaged Bryan Adams replaced Nick and they released the song again with his vocals.

You are a person after my own heart.

To be fair, the current playlist is a combination of my "travelin' to AL" choices (which she loved) and her "drivin' to work" choices, so she hasn't really overhauled it to be completely in her own image since the trip yet.

Which leads to another update:

• Love - "7 and 7 Is"
• Pernice Brothers - "Cronulla Breakdown"
• The Magnetic Fields - "The Night You Can't Remember"
• Yo La Tengo - "For Shame of Doing Wrong"
• Buffy - "Under Your Spell"
• Rolling Stones - "Dead Flowers"
• Carla Bozulich - "Time of the Preacher" (Have you heard this album, msbelle? It's a lovely, restrained track-by-track remake of The Red-Headed Stranger by Carla B of the Geraldine Fibbers and her husband, the skronk-jazz-genius-cum-Wilco-guitarist Nels Cline. I think you'd like it.)
• Hella - "Bugtime Mad"
• Robbie Fulks - "Cry Cry Cry"
• The Moles - "Instinct"
• Link Wray - "Hidden Charms"
• Ketty Lester - "Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid"
• Yo La Tengo - "A House Is Not A Motel"
• Etta James - "My Dearest Darling"

why do I know his name?

Butch and Sundance: The Early Days

I think it's Katt, though.

It is, and he was also Sissy Spacek's ill-fated (bucket headed?) prom date in CARRIE.
